Description

Pristine Home In Havertown. Approach this classic stone home from the end of Strathmore or Edgewood Roads and you will know you have found something special. Lovingly and tastefully updated, this home has all the original charm mixed with fresh and new details. Original hardwood throughout the first floor, the living room is to the right of the foyer. The gas fireplace with brick surround and original built ins is the focal point of the room. Deep window sills thought out the house let in lots of light. Such a large space, the current owners have tucked a dining area into the far end of the living room. Since it opens to the kitchen, it works well. The updated kitchen really cooks with stainless appliances and lots of light. The kitchen is the heart of any home and this one has plenty of counter space and ample cabinet storage. Very convenient for carrying groceries, notice that the kitchen door leads to the driveway. Adjacent to the kitchen is the original dining room, currently being used as a family room. It works with the way we live today, but easy to switch back. Such great flow on the first floor makes for fun entertaining. The den/sitting room with stone floor is accessed by french doors from dining area. The first floor powder room is tucked into this space. From the sitting room you can enter the garage and also walk out the french doors to a very large deck. The deck overlooks a terraced garden with stone walls and patio. Sit a spell and enjoy the beautiful view. On the second floor you will find three large bedrooms all with hardwood floors and nice closet space. There is an updated hall bath and of course the updated master bath has a step in shower. At the top of the steps a door leads out to the second floor roof deck. The third floor offers the 4th bedroom which is currently being used as an office. This room has a full bathroom with the most adorable small old fashioned bathtub. The large unfinished but floored attic storage space takes up the rest of the third floor. The mechanicals and laundry are located in the lower level. It is unfinished space but with walk up access to the outside, the basement can easily be finished. The two car garage has easy inside access, and the private driveway has good turn around space that can park many cars. The grounds are landscaped and the gardens are amazing with many easy care perennials and shrubbery. Enjoy your morning coffee and the sounds of birdsong on that wonderful deck. This is truly a special home. Easy commute to town on the Norristown High Speed Line. Walk to shopping and restaurants and enjoy the award winning Haverford schools. This home has it all.
